Arbitrary/Function Waveform Generators
4075B Series

Point-by-Point Signal Integrity
The 4075B Series Arbitrary/Function Waveform
Generators are versatile high-performance
single- and dual-channel arbitrary waveform
generators with large arbitrary memory depth. The
instruments provide variable output voltages from
0 to 10 Vp-p into 50 ohms or up to 20 Vp-p into
open circuit and a continuously variable DC offset
that allows the output to be injected directly into
circuits at the correct bias level.
These generators combine the benefits of DDS
(direct digital synthesis) and true AWG (arbitrary
waveform generator) architectures without the
limitations of either. Standard waveforms such as
sine, square, and triangle are generated with a
DDS chip, delivering great frequency resolution at
a low cost. Custom arbitrary waveform generation
is implemented with a true point-by-point design,
offering improved signal integrity by producing
significantly less jitter and distortion compared
to a DDS-only architecture. This point-by-point

generation capability allows these instruments
to be used for simulating reliable clock signals,
generating triggers, or validating serial data
buses.
